However, as I see it, creativity means all that but it is also beyond just putting up a painting, composing a music piece or to invent something unique.

Creative living is to allow for inspiration, love and meaning. Creativity is a conscious state. It is more about being, and not just doing.

15 Top Tips to Enhance Creative Thinking

“There is no doubt that creativity is the most important human resource of all. Without creativity, there would be no progress, and we would be forever repeating the same patterns.” – Edward de Bono

Many people experienced blocks to creative thinking. If you are engaged in work or in an environment that encourages repetitive work for instance, there is no opportunity to be engaged creatively.

You do not gain extra points for thinking out-of-the-box.

10 Free Love Coupons For Your Download

“Love is always bestowed as a gift – freely, willingly and without expectation. We don’t love to be loved; we love to love.”
– Leo Buscaglia

I have created some love coupons for your download (see link below). You can redeem them for yourself (or give the coupons to someone you love to redeem them with you). As the one redeeming the coupon, it means that you give yourself the permission to ask and to receive too. This is an act of self-love and self-care. The permission to ask and to receive is also an important practice for activating the Law of Attraction.

Love coupons are joyful, fun and convenient. They bring on smiles and laughter for both parties. You can also cash-in on them anytime. Whenever you are in the mood for a specific experience, simply cut off the appropriate coupon for use.

I received some very nice coupons from my two children for my birthday in December last year. The love coupons are about giving me time off, massages and even a blank one to fill in anything I want. In fact, the lovely gift from my girls sparked off the idea for creating free love coupons for your download. I have yet to redeem any of mine but I sure will be doing soon. (Thanks, my two lovely angels!)

101 Ways to Love Your Life

When you love your life, everything works. You become happy. There is a skip in your walk, a song in your heart, a shine in your aura, a joy in your being. Others are attracted to you. You find yourself supported by the universe. Success, invariably, becomes easy.
